How to fix: Dimension value too high [shipping_length]

Use a shipping dimension value within the limits

In this article


Why this issue is happening

The shipping length [shipping_length] attribute is an optional attribute that allows you to specify dimensions for carrier-calculated shipping rates in the Merchant Center. This issue occurs when the value that you’ve submitted for shipping length [shipping_length] is higher than Merchant Center permits.

How to fix your issue

To correct this issue, submit a dimension value within 1 cm - 400 cm or 1 inch - 150 inches. Your shipping costs are calculated based on dimensions and weight, so providing accurate dimensions within the limits helps ensure that Google calculates these costs correctly.
